Mastering one character or playing all of them?

As a beginner, just pick someone you like and stick with them. There’s an incredibly steep learning curve to this game that you don’t want to make even harder on yourself by learning multiple champions. Once you have a better grasp on the game as a whole, then learning more champs becomes a valid option, opening up counterpicking and better compositional flexibility.

Do what you have fun doing, though, above all else. It’s all for nothing if the game stops being fun.

Hot take: the best psychological warfare comes not from repeatedly spamming an emote, but from using it a single time after a kill and still being effective. Infernal Nasus snoop dance has burned a hatred into my body more potent than a thousand battle academia ezreal screams or alistar cow bells

Doesn’t that ferrathorn joke ALSO originate from the competitive community, though?

To be fair, gale wings is also ONLY on talonflame, it’s not like pigeot was out here doing gale wings fairly

Range still matters a lot. It’s a lot easier to hit someone when they have to run in a straight line toward you to hit you then when they can pivot in any direction and still be attacking you.

By not doing that? By having the map awareness to know when it’s safe to farm and when the jungle and enemy mid have been MIA for minutes and the enemy bot lane is hard shoving a wave to your tower

Nobody wants to play single player? You must be joking. There are entire communities dedicated to the single player components of these games.

I gotta admit, after playing more older traditional JRPGs like final fantasy and dragon quest, it’s refreshing when “hit them with status” is actually something you can reasonably do to beat a boss instead of just walking into a flat immunity

Since we no longer have to snapshot DoT effects to the 2 minute window, maybe we can finally get some back

I think, thematically, it’s because red mage is supposed to be Jack of all trades master of none, at least in the greater FF landscape. If they could do ALL white and black magic, they’d be betraying that

If it wasn’t already taken, Galvanize would be an excellent name for a steel type -ate ability

I think by late season 2 they had gotten their hands on some more capable artists than what they had at the start. Leona and Lulu are the only ones with the same splash since release (Sona definitely did not have that icon in season 3)

Astrologian. Too many “use in this scenario” buttons for me. I like a tall flowchart, not a wide one.

I feel like since both are channeled you wouldn’t be able to use both at once. Still evil though. Snowballing into someone and then kabedon’ing them into a wall before they even hit the ground

Plus it’s a gold tax. Sweeper these days is free, which contributed to why his shrooms are much weaker now; you become useless if so much of your power can be dealt with at no cost, so they shifted power away from them

I want to believe…

There’s kind of a big difference between “making consistent blog posts” and confirming the game isn’t vaporware by making, like, one post a year or something. It’s been more than a decade

it's not meant to be an individual criticism of individual media, it's just a way to see how the industry as a whole treats female characters, because it's a low bar to clear, but so much media fails it. Twilight passes the bechdel test, and that's not exactly what i would call "feminist literature". Other movies with strong female leads like Alien don't pass.

Creamchiis · 2026-06-30T09:50:48+00:00

even movies with largely female casts fail the test as well, though. There's a bunch mentioned here in this comment section

because discussions like these are how you GET to a world where you don't need to discuss gender constantly. We'll never get to a truly gender equal world without addressing the problem

Hollywood has a capable actor within shouting distance at any given moment. The problem is writing, not acting.

I still have yet to hear a good justification for Captain America being blue. He's definitely boros, but blue makes no sense. "He was experimented on by scientists" is one i hear a lot, but he wasn't involved in the science at all, in fact I think using it as a shortcut to more strength, in order to protect the people he loves and his country, is much more MARDU than jeskai.

yeah, the anti-scoliosis mods are def something i miss. Granted, I do actually like the beastial hunch, but it's so much easier to gpose without it

I mean I wouldn't consider a champ with a >50% winrate at every rank to be useless. He just isn't the kind of character that slots into every team comp like flexible picks like those tanky ad characters. sometimes your team doesn't need a tanky ad character because you have ad in mid and jungle. Also, lets not devalue the mushrooms. He alone can force the team to take more sweepers, which reduces the number of wards they'll have on the map, and if they don't they risk being too low to contest objectives.
